Proper training in the russian "Vagonova" syllabus is the cornerstone of the MCPA Ballet Academy. MCPA is proud to have three Russian teachers on staff to help train our students in this beautiful art form.
The Ballet Academy at MCPA consists of two distinct schools - the Classical Training Division and the Professional Division.
The Classical Training division offers eight levels for ages 7 to adult. Students attend class from one to three days per week, depending on the level of the class.
Proper classical training begins in the Ballet Fundamentals and Primary levels, where beginning students of all ages learn classroom etiquitte, poise, and the beginning of correct body alignment for ballet.
As the students move through the Elementary and Intermediate levels, the emphasis is always on proper techinique. Students in the Intermediate levels, who are dancing three days per week, are introduced to pointe work around age 12.
The Professional division at MCPA offers a unique opportunity for select students who show an exceptional aptitude for ballet. Students are selected to enter the Professional Preparatory class when entering third or fourth grade.
As the students develop in the professional division, they learn an appreciation for the dedication and perseverance required to succeed in the world of dance. By setting high standards, MCPA has created a professional training program which will prepare these students for a career in the field if they so choose.
Professional Training Division
Students in both the Classical and Professional Divisions have the opportunity to perform in the annual Nutcracker, presented by MCPA. This is a professional, full-length production, which allows the students to perfect their performance skills in the art of dance.
All students in the Academy participate in the June "Classical Celebration" performance, where students again practice their performance skills as they perform for family and friends in the Spring Gala.
